It's a hard breaking ball, thrown 79-83 mph, with a snap-down break. It's more a longer curve than a slider.

Changeup:

Has a changeup, but doesn't really use it in a relief role.

Control:

His command is average at best and is the main reason he's a reliever and not a starter.

Poise:

He goes right at hitters and has the right mentality for short relief.

Physical Description:

Storen has a solid build with wide shoulders.

Medical Update:

Healthy.

Strengths:

He has three pitches, with his fastball-curve combination working well in the bullpen.

Weaknesses:

His command hasn't always been a strong point.

Summary:

Storen has the stuff to be a starter and it's not unheard of for a team to take a college closer and let him start as a pro. That being said, there's a reason Stanford has him in the bullpen ... his command hasn't always been sharp. Even as a short reliever, though, his fastball-curve mix is more than enough to get hitters out, especially from the right side. Good college closers usually get drafted well and Storen should be no exception.
